what we did was go to a few construction sites and ask if there was any left over pvc or corrugated pipes. YOu'd be surprised at how much they tried to give us.

seriously, one of those at ~15 feet is mad expensive, like $100 ++

go to some construction site and ask for some, a lot of times there happy to give some away

Those pipes are very expensive, I'd look for them at the dump or at a construction site.

To buy a huge piece like that one, its just way too expensive and I imagine that it would break pretty easily. If you can find it at a site then sure go for it, but theres no need really to put that shit in your house anyway...

yeah, like the others above me said, go to a construction site. Home Depot doesn't have it in that huge of a size, and it would be hella expensive

home depot sells a 20 foot long 6 inch wide pipe for 20 bucks. they work perfectly (way better than skinnier ones like 2 or 3 inches wide)
